Oz Billionaire To Build Working Titanic Replica

A flamboyant Australian billionaire has ordered a shipyard in China to build him an exact replica of the Titanic.
Mining magnate Clive Palmer has announced the luxury cruise ship will have the same dimensions as the original Titanic which sank on its maiden voyage 100 years ago.
"Many people have attempted to do it before but have failed because they didn't have the money to pay for it," Mr Palmer told reporters in Brisbane.
"We've got the money, we've got the shipyard and we're moving very heavily to commence construction to bring this ship into service."
Mr Palmer wants the ship to be built by state-owned Chinese company CSC Jinling Shipyard.
With the latest navigation and safety systems, Titanic II will sail in the northern hemisphere, with her maiden voyage from England to North America scheduled for late 2016.
Mr Palmer said the rebuild was a tribute to the spirit of the men and women who worked on the original Titanic, which sank after hitting an iceberg on April 15, 1912 and cost the lives of 1,514 passengers and crew.

$1.6 million abandoned Ferrari in Dubai
Remember the poor Ferrari Enzo supercar abandoned in Dubai last August?
Well, it’s still sitting in the same police impound lot we last saw it in, but it may have a bright future ahead.
The Enzo, along with several other exotics, is to be auctioned off in what the Daily Mail, via Jalopnik, claims is the most expensive police sale in history.

Apple stock in shock collapse
Trading in Apple (NasdaqGS: AAPL - news) shares were briefly halted on Friday after a shock 9pc fall, which some reports said was the result of a "fat-finger error" and others put down to an embarrassing systems glitch.
A single trade of 100 shares at a price of $542.80 in the world's most valuable company hit the tape at 10:57 in New York (Frankfurt: A0DKRK - news) coming from the BATS Exchange.
As the previous transaction seconds earlier was at a price of $598.26, a stock circuit breaker rule was triggered and trading was halted.
“It looks like a fat finger mistake,” Joe Terranova, chief market strategist for Virtus Investment Partners, told CNBC .
However, minutes before the trade, BATS sent an alert stating: “Please be advised that BATS is currently investigating system issues trading in symbols range A through BF.”
The untimely systems glitch occurred on the same day as BATS's stock market debut and also led to erroneous price quotes for the exchange.
Hundreds of trades in BATS shares, which floated at $16 a share and fell to $15.25 before the slew of erroneous trades, had to be cancelled after orders seemed to be filled at prices less than a penny a share.
The trades were later cancelled by Nasdaq (Nasdaq: ^NDX - news) and BATS was forced to declare "self-help," which means an exchange is dealing with internal problems processing trades and needs to send trades through other venues.
BATS, headed by 45-year-old Joe Ratterman, was formed in 2005 by major banks and trading firms looking to break the stranglehold that the NYSE and Nasdaq had on US stock trading.
Trading in Apple shares have resumed.

Katy Perry's bizarre lingerie look
Pop tart Katy Perry left little to the imagination in a sheer ensemble while out and about in Paris on Thursday. While we adore her coral-colored Jimmy Choo handbag and strappy Christian Louboutin sandals, we abhor her tired blue tresses and minty Vera Wang mess of a dress. Oh, and those granny panties ... they belong under sweatpants, not on display during Fashion Week!
Whitney Houston found dead at 48
Too many of us—myself included—are guilty of making insensitive jokes about the demise of Whitney Houston, her frail frame, loss of one of pop's purest voices, and battle with drugs.
But none of us are laughing now.On Saturday, Houston's publicist confirmed to the Associated Press that the award-winning "I Will Always Love You" singer died. She was 48. The timing of her death, the eve of the Grammys, the biggest music event of the year, makes the horrible news even more tragic. According to CNN, Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. PT at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
The Beverly Hilton is the venue for the music industry's most prestigious pre-Grammy party hosted by veteran executive Clive Davis, who discovered Houston.
In an industry flooded with novelty artists, who disappear after scoring one hit, Houston's longevity was unquestioned when she released her debut single, the ballad "You Give Good Love" in February 1985. The song's soothing opening ad-libs displayed her soulful roots while also celebrating her pop sensibilities.
